Description
<p>Eventually we return - after illness, a bad bout of depression followed by Summer ennui and a lack of real stories Simon and Nick rise again like an unwanted Phoenix to return to your Podcast feed... A few thoughts on a solid if not overly inspired Glowtime and a lot of rambling “catch up” conversation... Welcome back to the world of the EAP!</p>
